I've always wanted a real life "Global" from Earth Final Conflict. Can't wait to find out how badly I won't be able to afford it 😭

reboot -f

Because real men login as root and don't care about such silly things like an init system or file system syncing!

To quote the man page:

-f Does not invoke shutdown(8) and instead performs the actual action you would expect from the name.

A horse with no name (in my ass)

Heard them all by now I think. But if you want to try and kick my ass, you'd better bring a step ladder 🤣

Okay, now it's my turn to be surprised, people actually do that? (Mind you, I got married before online dating was even a thing, so I'm probably a 'bit' out of touch)

Overall I like it, I'm a pretty introverted person and tend to stay in the background by nature, but being this tall means that I get noticed no matter what.

That being said, I'm writing this from the back of an Uber and i can't put my head straight up here. And the only way to fly is in an emergency exit seat.

I can only buy clothes in specialised shops, but these days most have web shops, so that has become a lot easier.

As someone who's well over 2 meters tall, I can tell you that no matter where I travel, people always ask. Just depending on the country, they just stop me walking in public, or only after some small talk.

I can't speak for all European countries, but at least in the Netherlands they're not a thing. We might still have money orders, which are similar, but I've never seen one used.

Instead we can just make instant bank transfers, even using a QR code, which you can generate in your own banking app and can be used with any other bank.

Same here, I used to have this image in my head of a eccentric entrepreneur pushing technology to the max with 'fuck you money'.

Sure he said some crazy shit sometimes, but it kind of felt like he didn't have much of a filter.

Around the time of the Thai cave thing this started to change, but I still gave him the benefit of the doubt until that point.

After that, things just went down hill...

Same here, similar age.

When i got diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago, ny psychologist mentioned that I'm probably on the spectrum as well, but that getting an official diagnosis wouldn't really help anything and she wasn't sure I would even get one.

But having the realisation really opened my eyes though, I now understand better why certain situations always made me irritable and made me have much more peace with my own limitations.

I always knew I was a bit 'off', and knowing I'm on the spectrum kind of felt like the last pieces of the puzzle fell in place.

Security through obscurity would be having a system connected to a network, but relying on a secret / unknown protocol to secure it.

Air-gapping a system is a real and very useful security method. That being said, it's not enough by itself.

If you're interested, have a look at past examples, like the recent work on breaking Tetra communication standard and Stuxnet.
